Money speaks and based off Patriots history we’ve never been generous with contract offers. I think you offer guys a good deal and they’ll sign regardless of the rebuild.

If we operate with the idea that we need to get players to sign great value contracts as a losing franchise we won’t get anywhere.

You’ve got to significantly overpay in that scenario, and we’ve heard enough reports of them being in the mix that it’s clear the effort is being made. They’re just in a tough spot right now because top tier guys want to win or at least have a shot at postseason incentives.

Then the question arises when will we ever get needle moving players in free agency if not when we have 100 million dollars in cap space and the number three pick to choose a possible franchise QB?

So the Pats made a “competitive” offer? Would love to see it unless Wilson was being nice telling them he’s going to explore the market.

This team is so damn cheap.

Chicken/Egg. Have to get the(a) quarterback. At least then, you have a plan that you can sell guys on. Bailey Zappe and Nathan Rourke (and a hypothetical QB at #3) just aren't enough right now. That's why they made a move so quick in 2021 to re-sign Newton ahead of free agency.

We lost him over that?????????????

Ah well, really liked the way he was trending last year. Now keep Dugger and move Marte to the LB group where he belongs.

I guess they have a plan...so far I'm getting Red Sox vibes...

Magic 8 ball says “Probably Not”. What rumor?

Very early returns but they are not encouraging. Net loss in talent.
